A Woodbridge man was arrested yesterday on charges that he was dealing cocaine around the township.

Juan A. Alberto, 47, was charged with two counts of distribution of a controlled dangerous substance, possession of a controlled dangerous substance, and evidence tampering.

Police said the arrest came after months of investigation, including surveillance. Alberto is accused of dealing drugs throughout Woodbridge. Police got warrants to search Alberto's Gill Lane apartment, his car and his girlfriend's car.

Cops executed the warrants late last night, and found 30 grams of cocaine, worth about $2,500, packaged "in a manner consistent with distribution." Alberto was arrested near his home.
